Novel Use of Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Mobilization of an Entrapped Coronary Guidewire in a Heavily Calcified LAD/DB Bifurcation Lesion—A Case Report

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 64‑year‑old man with a Non–ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) underwent coronary angiography, which revealed single‑vessel disease with a high‑grade proximal and a severely calcified mid‑LAD lesion just proximal to a diagonal branch (DB). Both the LAD and the DB were wired.

Five‐Year Clinical Outcomes of Biodegradable Versus Durable Polymer Drug‐Eluting Stents: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis of 4394 Patients

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biodegradable‐polymer (BP) drug‐eluting stents (DES) were developed to mitigate potential late adverse events related to persistent durable polymers in durable‐polymer (DP) DES; however, contemporary long‐term real‐world comparative data remain limited. Aims We aimed to compare the 5‐year clinical outcomes of contemporary BP‐DES and
